Empathological Necroticism Carcass
<br/> Carcass "Empathological Necroticism"<br/> (taken from "Symphonies of Sickness" CD)<br/> transcribed by grievous - a tireless mofo.<br/> (drop me e-mail if you find mistakes)<br/> <br/> Argh - this tune is a monster, but a personal favorite for<br/> it's lack of guitar solos. A lot of the spots where vibrato<br/> is indicated should be only lightly wiggled - listen to the<br/> disc and you'll notice Bill Steer uses a light vibrato quite<br/> frequently to great effect. As a matter of fact, go buy the<br/> damn CD if you don't have it - it's a masterpiece of<br/> technical grind-death-sludge with an original style. The<br/> lyrics aren't included because I assume you already have the<br/> record if you want to play this...<br/> <br/> Tune all strings down 5 half-steps (e.g. B E A D ...)<br/> <br/> *=vibrato<br/> [pm]=palm mute<br/> [dp]=double pick<br/> <br/> INTRO RIFF (x4)<br/> (let ring) (let ring)<br/> e------------------------------------------------------------<br/> B------------------------------------------------------------<br/> G------------------------------------------------------------<br/> D----------3--------------6-6-6----8-------------------------<br/> A-4-4-4-2--1-3------------4-4-4-4--6-2----------------------<br/> E-2-2-2-0----1------------------3----0-----------------------<br/> <br/> After the intro riff, chop an open E power chord 16 times.<br/> <br/> RIFF 1 (x4)<br/> *<br/> e------------------------------------------------------------<br/> B------------------------------------------------------------<br/> G------------------------------------------------------------<br/> D--------3-----6-6-6----8------------------------------------<br/> A-4-4-4--1-3---4-4-4-4--6-2---------------------------------<br/> E-2-2-2----1---------3----0----------------------------------<br/> <br/> RIFF 2 (x4)<br/> * * * *<br/> e------------------------------------------------------------<br/> B------------------------------------------------------------<br/> G------------------------------------------------------------<br/> D------------------------------------------------------------<br/> A-4-4-4--7/8--3-------------4-4-4-7/8--3--5---6--------------<br/> E-2-2-2--5/6--1-3-2/4-3/5---2-2-2-5/6--1-3-3-4-4-5-----------<br/> <br/> Repeat Riffs 1 and 2...<br/> <br/> RIFF 3 (x4)<br/> * *<br/> e------------------------------------------------------------<br/> B------------------------------------------------------------<br/> G------------------------------------------------------------<br/> D-5-----------5---4/3/5----5---5-----5-----------------------<br/> A-3-4--4-4--4-3-4----------3-4-3-4-3-3-4-5/3/7---------------<br/> E---2--2-2--2---2------------2---2-1---2-3/1/5---------------<br/> <br/> RIFF 4 (x4)<br/> *<br/> e------------------------------------------------------------<br/> B------------------------------------------------------------<br/> G------------------------------------------------------------<br/> D-5---8--------3---------------------------------------------<br/> A-3-4-6-7-2--3-1-5/8/7---------------------------------------<br/> E---2---5-0--1---3/6/5---------------------------------------<br/> <br/> RIFF 5 (x4)<br/> ########<br/> e------------------------------------------------------------<br/> B------------------------------------------------------------<br/> G------------------------------------------------------------<br/> D-5-----------8-----------5-------------8--------------------<br/> A-3-4--4-4-4--6-7--7-7-7--3-4--4-4-4--7-6-3-2----------------<br/> E---2--2-2-2----5--5-5-5----2--2-2-2--5---1-0----------------<br/> <br/> (replace the ###### bit with the following on the 4th repeat)<br/> [ pm ]<br/> e------------------<br/> B------------------<br/> G------------------<br/> D-----8888---------<br/> A-7777666633332222-<br/> E-5555----11110000-<br/> <br/> RIFF 6 (x3) (on 4th, do this)<br/> (trem picking -
